Poor Dick.
While many think he turned out to be a RINO, I don’t think he favored homosexual rights. And having his daughter turn out to be a lezzie put him in an embarrasing position.
If so, he should have put the country and western civilization ahead of the feelings of the lezzie daughter. Standing for something that's right when it negatively impacts you is what makes a statesman.
He is not alone in this. There has to be hundreds of thousands of parents facing this issue.
Dick Cheney is pro-gay, remember he supported homosexualizing the military and was willing to run on gay marriage, almost a decade and a half ago.

“”Both groups, Log Cabin Republicans and GOProud, also made specific mention of former Vice President Dick Cheney, downplaying Obama’s statement because the Republican embraced same-sex marriage first.””
07/30/12——Dick Cheney Defends His Silence On Gay Marriage In 2000:
“”WASHINGTON — Dick Cheney says he didn’t see the point of raising the issue of gay marriage in the 2000 presidential campaign, even though he supported it.
The former vice president suggested it wouldn’t have done much good and probably would have sunk President George W. Bush’s prospects for office.””
02/17/2012——Dick Cheney Part Of Marriage Equality Lobbying Effort In Maryland: Report:
“”WASHINGTON — Dick Cheney is part of a lobbying campaign to convince at least one Maryland state lawmaker to back marriage equality, the Baltimore Sun reported on Thursday. Since leaving the vice president’s office, Cheney has been increasingly vocal in his support for same-sex marriage, but the extent of his engagement on the issue was not previously well known.””
In this situation it basically muzzles the parent. You don’t want to publicly state you are ashamed of your children.
Remaining silent on the subject is probably the best policy.
There will be plenty of others to sound off on it.
I feel for parents put in this situation. I haven’t always agreed with Cheney, but... between him and Barry, it would be a no brainer, since one of them has no brain.
